What should you do when you’ve met your Brand Promise goal? That’s a question that came up from a former client recently. We’d done some great work in the past and the CEO called just to check in and catch up. His was a pretty specific question, but the general applicability is something that I [...]
Executive escalations can be a real life-saver for an organization. Whether it’s a high-profile Customer or just someone whose experience has gone completely off the rails, sometimes escalating dramatically can truly save the day for CX. I recently had an experience that was saved by an executive escalation. I happen to know a Senior Director [...]
One of my Five Principles of Good CX is Communication. You can screw a lot of things up with your Customers and they’ll still forgive you, but if you’re keeping information from them or leaving them in the dark, there’s really little excuse. Sometimes you don’t know things, but letting them know you don’t know [...]
We’re now up to the last of the Five Principles of CX (you can find an introduction to this series here, and parts one, two, three, and four at these links), Every Customer Elite.

I’ve previously mentioned the tongue-in-cheek observation that our jobs would all be a lot easier without the Customers, right? (Forget that our jobs [...]
In this, the second installment of a five-part series on the Principles of Good CX (Intro here, and Part One here), I’ll present the principle of Communication. It’s pretty obvious that this is important, but that makes it even more surprising that so many organizations get it so wrong. I recently spent literally two weeks [...]
In my time as a CX professional, I’ve developed what I call the Five Principles of CX. I’ll go through them over the course of five articles starting here with the first one: Get It Right (GIR).

I wouldn’t be a self-serving, self-promoting consultant if I didn’t have a few frameworks to show you, so at the risk of shaming myself and losing my membership card, here’s another one. Over the course of five articles, I’ll get into each of them, but here I’ll lay out what I term the Principles of [...]
